Fwd: How to disable dus in GNOME 2.16.0 desktop/control-centor/gnome-settings-daemon?

["Shawn Shen" <sunmozilla gmail com>]

Thanks Surya,

I also find a way to start the dbus with normal user.
Here is my tips:

1. script: dbus.sh
#!/bin/sh
     GARNOME=/localdisk/data/GNOME2.16.0
# to delete the old pid
         rm -rf $GARNOME/var/run/messagebus.pid
         rm -rf $GARNOME/var/run/haldaemon.pid
# start the service
         if [ `grep "<user>messagebus</user>" $GARNOME/etc/dbus-1/system.conf` ]; then
                cat $GARNOME/etc/dbus-1/system.conf | \
                        sed 's,<user>messagebus</user>,<user>dbus</user>,' > \
                        $GARNOME/etc/dbus-1/system.conf;
    fi
    $GARNOME/bin/dbus-daemon --system
        $GARNOME/sbin/hald
# should be started as root
#   $GARNOME/sbin/avahi-daemon -D; \
#   $GARNOME/sbin/avahi-dnsconfd -D; \

2. using the script to start GNOME from Garnome readme.

3. modify the $GARNOME/etc/dbus-1/system.conf, change the user dbus to my own account. (un-secure?)

Thanks to all.

Regards,

Shawn
